i77310 Seeing the reviews here, I expected a bad film but decided to watch it as Michael Madsen is in it, like him since Reservoir Dogs.There is some violence but nothing gross, the usual language, not much plot(could have done better) as it has an OK setting; I don't really care for the characters but I like girl who plays Zoe the best. She's quite spunky and I like her attitude and is convincing as the heroine.Madsen doesn't have a big role in it like I thought, since his name is right in the middle of the DVD cover. It's not a bad film. Good rental but not a good buy. I'm glad I didn't buy it.Still, I wasn't bored sitting through the whole film. Overall still feel it doesn't deserve a 3.2/10 rating, maybe just 5-6.
Paul Andrews UKM: The Ultimate Killing Machine starts as four teenage misfits named Waylon (Mac Fyfe), Buddy (Steve Arbuckle), Zoe (Victoria Nestorowicz) & Carrie (Erin Mackinnon) enlist in the US Army. They are taken to Millhaven Research Facility where Major Blevins (Michael Madsen) runs the 'Havoc Project' where scientist Dr. Stroheim (John Evans) is trying to perfect a serum that when injected into a living subject will turn them into an almost unstoppable soldier, the ultimate killing machine if you were. Blevins & Stroheim plan to use the four new recruits as guinea pigs but things go wrong as one of their failed experiments is accidentally freed & goes on a killing rampage inside the locked down facility...This American Canadian co-production was directed by David Mitchell & is yet another poor generic 'science gone wrong' horror flick that has very little going for it. The script by Tyler Levine & Tim McGregor takes itself extremely seriously & is pretty slow going & very dull, the majority of UKM: The Ultimate Killing Machine is spent following annoying character's around incredibly dark corridors which look almost exactly identical. The film has no pace, the story about a US Military project to create the ultimate weapon through genetics & science is so old hat & clichéd it just feels so routine & predictable, there just isn't a single original idea or scene in the entire thing. The character's are pretty poor, you get the usual bonding scenes as they take it in turns to open their hearts to each other between being chased by a genetic mutant soldier, the Army official's are poorly defined & no-one has any real individuality or personality. At 90 odd minutes in length the film feels a lot longer as we get scene after scene of these character's running around dark corridors doing nothing in particular. It gets very boring very quickly. There isn't even any decent violence or exploitation to distract you from the snail's pace.Director Mitchell films with competence but little else. One corridor looks pretty much identical to the next one & the whole film becomes very repetitive & bland to look at. One also has to comment on the fact that the military facility featured in UKM: The Ultimate Killing Machine is maybe the darkest & most understaffed ever seen, could they not afford the electric bill? Was this place not fitted with lights? The gore levels are virtually zero, there's some blood splatter, a decapitated head, someone is shot in the head, there are a few injection scenes & a few dead bodies. Basically nothing memorable at all.According to the IMDb this had a budget of about $5,000,000 which quite simply amazes me, I simply cannot believe a film as basic & sloppy as this cost that amount, I just can't. There's nothing here apart from a small cast & lots of dark corridors which look exactly the same. Filmed in Hamilton in Ontario in Canada. The acting is alright, this is the type of film Michael Madsen has openly admitted he makes to pay the bills & here he seems on autopilot.UKM: The Ultimate Killing Machine is a routine science gone bad for military reasons horror film where lots of bland character's run around identical almost pitch black corridors. One to forget & one to avoid.
piotr_andronowski this was one of...no wait, THE worst movie ever made with a budget of about 1.99 CDN. whoever gave rated this movie above 3/10 must have been a) high b) dumber than Forrest Gump c) retarded beyond belief LICK THE Enemy LOL LMFAO Michael Madsen should be ashamed for being in this movie. did he have to pay off some mafia debt or what? i see no other reason for his appearance. i have just wasted an hour 25 minutes of my life watching this disgrace of a movie. i wish i saw some random commercials on TV instead.what a piece of junk. in fact i think my IQ lowered by 10 points after watching this movie. throughout the entire film i hoped that it would turn into a porno to make it at least somewhat interesting, but instead they had the beginning of a sex scene and guess what, the guy turns the girl down because HE does not know if it's really her who wants to bang him or if it was the "adrenaline gland" messing her up and making her have "sexual urges".
gavin6942 After being rejected from standard Army boot camp for being complete rejects (4-F), four young Americans join the secret project of Major Blevins (Michael Madsen) where they are to be transformed into the ultimate killing machines. But the laboratory still hasn't disposed of the previous test subject, who did not quite turn out as planned.On the Internet Movie Database, this film comes in at 2.4 out of 10, which is just about the lowest you'll ever find a movie listed. The only things lower are "Gigli" and Bill Cosby's turd sandwich "Leonard 6". Sure, the film is bad, but not nearly that bad (these people should rent "Nine Lives"). Allow me to explain. The acting is not great and the dialogue is horrible (mostly just grunting and swearing over and over again). The plot may not be outstanding, but it's decent and is detailed enough to carry the film. But many good things are in here.The film is comedy through and through. From the opening scenes that depict the candidates as morons (which reminded me of "Can't Hardly Wait") to their stereotypical interactions like "The Breakfast Club" (the criminal, the brain, the basket case... with the princess replaced by a crack addict). And the film relies on some horror clichés in such a way that I have to assume they were meant to be funny: the German scientist, for example.But under the campiness was a decent film that had solid characters. Michael Madsen did not give his best performance, but he is always a joy to watch (even in such things as "Eye of the Beholder" or "Free Willy"). And the subplot about military recruitment being down and needing to make soldiers better was very timely and fit well. I suppose you could contrast this with "Return of the Livign Dead" in that way, with adrenaline-induced soldiers in this movie taking the place of the trioxin zombies.Maybe it wasn't great... but did you really think "UKM: The Ultimate Killing Machine" would be? I was actually heavily entertained. And maybe you didn't get the nudity you wanted (which is surprisingly with how much sexual activity is going on). But you got gore: faces ripped off, heads torn from necks, and a man slashed to pieces with blood flying all over the killer. Some of it -- the needles -- was done with the lowest quality of special effects, but I'd rather watch some film maker trying to save money with special effects than use cheesy computer stuff. (We can't all be the masters of gore that Peter Jackson was and Stuart Gordon is.) When you're at the video store and you're deciding between this and "Navy Seals", I actually liked this one better. But seriously, you know what you're getting yourself into. At least I hope so... don't be one of those people who doesn't know anything and picks up movies at random. If you are, you deserve to see every crappy film you rent. If you like camp, like the original "Batman" movie, you'll like this one.
